bed voidage and heat transfer in non-newtonian liquid-solid fluidized bed

Bed Voidage and Heat Transfer in Non-Newtonian Liquid-Solid Fluidized Bed

The presence of particles in liquid-solid fluidized beds enhances the bed heat transfer, because the movement of the particles leads to an increased turbulence in the system. Moreover, the violent movement of the particles has a positive effect on fouling of the heat transfer surface. The aim of this investigation was to perform systematic measurements of bed voidage and heat transfer coeff...

Heat Transfer of Liquid/ Solid Fluidized Beds for Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluids

The excellent performance of fluidized bed heat exchangers is due to the interaction between particles and heat transfer surface and to the mixing effects in the viscous sublayer. In this paper, the results of experimental investigations on heat transfer for a wide range of Newtonian and non-Newtonian (shear-thinning power law) fluids are presented. New design equations have been developed ...

Gas-Liquid-Solid Fluidized Bed Simulation by Computational Fluid Dynamics

Gas-liquid-solid fluidized bed technique has emerged recently as one of the most promising one for three phase operations involved in chemical, biochemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical processing industries. Out of the fundamental characteristics of a three-phase fluidized bed, the gas hold up and liquid hold up behaviours have been studied extensively. Considering the various researchers’ fi...
